Reviews consistently praise Tacos Frida for authentic Mexican flavors with standout options like pastor, birria, carnitas, and pescado tacos and a memorable pozole. Many diners describe the service as friendly, attentive, and fast when the place is busy, with a cozy, vibrant atmosphere. Several mentions highlight strong drinks and margaritas, including hibiscus and tamarind varieties. Portions and prices vary, with some praising generous value while others note small portions or higher prices for certain dishes. Delivery orders generally travel well, but some guests prefer dining in for the full experience and report occasional order mixups or missing utensils. Gluten free diners should be aware that cross contamination can occur, as the kitchen reportedly does not fully prevent wheat and corn tortillas from sharing surfaces. While the majority call it among the best tacos in Montreal, there are occasional critiques about wait times, inconsistency, and some dishes not meeting expectations. Overall, Tacos Frida is described as a top Montreal Mexican spot with flavorful, well seasoned dishes, friendly staff, and a lively setting.
The quality & choice of ingredients have been consistent with the freshness & traditional origins of these tacos. The entire menu is delicious! It is a must.
Another tasty taco spot! We ordered delivery & tried the Al Pastor, beef fajita-style tacos, & the carnitas. The Al Pastor & carnitas were definite winners-super flavourful & juicy. Both the red & green salsas were delicious, & the guacamole was fresh & really well-seasoned. Everything held up great for delivery, but next time, we'll try dining in to get the full experience!

Great service, the lady explained the dishes very well & was super accommodating. The thosthadha was super crunchy & the ingredients definitely tasted fresh! Gorginamama for sure
the tacos pastor was super super gyattt & the consume was flavorbombshell
+ a nice jarrito to wash it all down made me want to go home & watch the frida movie
The food & cocktails were good, however there were a couple of things that we felt could have been different. The fish in the tacos did not seem fresh as they were soft (not crispy) & didn't seem to have been fried/baked to order. In addition we were not told that there was an extra charge for changing the corn tortilla to wheat ones. Also, the churros were served cold.
The staff here is spectacular. Able to accommodate a group of 10 with 30 minutes to close. We already knew what we wanted & the food came out very quick & fresh & delicious. We all got the birria plates & it comes with all the stuff to make your taco. I loved everything. It was so flavourful. The cheese crust was a great.
I can't recommend this place enough for good food! But do not visit with a large group right before closing! The restaurant isn't very big so it's best to reserve.
Some of the best tacos I've tried! The ingredients were very fresh, & the food was delicious. I had the tortilla soup & guacamole with chips as an entrée, highly recommend! For my main dish, I chose the Tinga Tacos, which were also excellent. Unfortunately couldn't try the churros :(
Went there recently & didn't expect it to be so bad. Oil was dripping from fries used in tacos, & they were not fresh at all. They didn't even give water, you have to ask for it separately. It seems they were understaffed as it took ages for them to even take the order, let alone bring it. They just picked up your plate literally as soon as you put the last bite in your mouth, even though few tables were still empty for guests in case it was busy, it wasn't. Overall not so good experience as we expected.
Since traveling to Mexico in Feb 2024, we have been trying to find an authentic style Mexican restaurant in Montreal. We did find this one that fits the bill. The food was fresh & delicious. We started with chips & guacamole. The chips were crunchy & freshly fried, & I would have liked more. The guacamole tasted just like mine, homemade. I did, however, find it quite expensive at $4.50 for 8 chips & 3 tbsps of guac. We then had, for our main meal, I had a beef burrito, & my partner had the carnitas platter. The Beef Asada Burrito was huge. The flour tortilla was filled with lots of grilled beef, lettuce, refried beans, cheese, & a bit of rice. Both red & green salsa were provided to up the spice factor & taste. As for the carnitas plate, it was served with rice, guacamole, black beans & 4 tortillas & carnitas (pulled pork with pico de gallo). It too lacked some spice & heat but was filling for those with big appetites. Reservations are not accepted, so be prepared to wait. We were there Friday at 6:15 & the place was full. We did have a short wait, which wasn't too bad. Except for the fact that it was way too hot inside. It seemed like the AC was out. Even the staff complained. Yes, this is an option for Mexican food. Next time we go, we'll make sure itbis cooler outside.

Excellent tacos! We loved the food & we were well received, we had a great time, & it's not expensive. We tried the guacamole, very fresh, with chips. Also the margaritas are to die for! Don't miss it.
Very good mexican food!!! Everything was fresh & tasty! Portions are very good & service is friendly! Would definitely recommend! The guacamole here is on another level, so so good! Thank you
The food is delicious. We ordered the Chicken fajitas plate with a chorizo entrée. Originally, I had ordered the Beef Fajitas plate but there was a mix up. I was NOT disappointed. The portion was generous & tasted fresh & amazing. Recommend the guacamole (best I have tasted in Montreal) Ambiance was very festive & good service.
This place is special. The food is fresh & very affordable. The service is extra friendly. I will definitely be heading back here soon. I love the tacos & guacamole & the drinks!
